Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Diisostearyl Malate is an emollient and most often used in lip products. It comes from isostearyl alcohol, a fatty acid, and malic acid, an AHA.
As an emollient, Diisostearyl Malate helps create a thin film on your skin to trap moisture in. This helps keep your skin soft and smooth.
Tocopheryl Acetate is AKA Vitamin E. It is an antioxidant and protects your skin from free radicals. Free radicals damage the skin by breaking down collagen.
One study found using Tocopheryl Acetate with Vitamin C decreased the number of sunburned cells.
Tocopheryl Acetate is commonly found in both skincare and dietary supplements.
Learn more about Tocopheryl AcetateOlea Europaea Fruit Oil is the fixed oil obtained from the ripe fruit of the Olive. In other words - olive oil.
The primary contents of olive oil are glycerides of the fatty acids linoleic, oleic and palmitic.
Olive oil also contains antioxidants such as Vitamin E. Antioxidants may help reduce signs of aging by fighting unstable free-radical molecules. It also contains Vitamins A (retinol), D, and K.
The squalene in olive oil makes it a great emollient. Emollients help soothe and soften your skin by trapping moisture in. This makes olive oil a great skin moisturizer.
Studies show olive oil to have antibacterial and antifungal properties in low concentrations. Another study found olive oil irritated sensitive oily skin. We always recommend speaking with a professional about using this ingredient in your routine.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterButylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:
- It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
- It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
- It helps improve product application.
Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

Lovely Scent, Very Moisturizing, but Pricey
A touch too tacky and thicker than your average lip gloss BUT can certainly double as one during the day. The scent is very nice and subtle but still sweet (it's truly honeydew!). Leaves my lips soft in the morning. But I gotta lower the rating because of the price; it's too expensive for the size.

Super Nourishing
This lip mask is packed full of nourishing oils and shea butter. For me, I've found that I prefer these occlusive ingredients to plain vaseline (which works perfectly fine for the lips, however I find that it causes a weird taste in the back of my throat). My lips used to be very dry and rough, but this mask has done wonders for softening my lips and preventing peeling dead skin. This mask will also last you forever! You really don't need a lot of product when you are just putting it on your lips.
This product does contain fragrance however, but I suspect its purpose is just to mask an unpleasant scent that sometimes occurs naturally with skincare ingredients. I say this because this lip mask has very little scent at all. When I first bought it I assumed it would smell like apples, but it's more akin to that generic faint lip balm smell.
